It sucks because that is a rare 928 'GT'

Mr.C 10-04-2014 10:38 PM

Get a 914. It's still a Porsche, but slow as shit!

Am I missing something here, the Argentines are mad about something hinting at a war THEY STARTED and then lost? What the fuck.

Look who got got speeding: BBC News - Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson admits speeding

One ticket in 30 years is pretty good, especially since their minister of highways a few years back had 3 in one year.

Ohoh I do, and I actually think its not too bad if you see it as a separate entity from TGUK..despite the fact that they share the same name. It's gotten a lot better than when it first started..even though all the challenges end up with the same results (ie. Tanner Foust gets to drive whatever car at the end of the show)

that annoys me so much haha. Unlike the real top gear where every host has similar driving skill, it really seems like the other 2 guys don't know shit so anytime it's high performance driving you know tanner faust is gonna win -- which makes watching the entire 'challenge' pointless

Haha yeah I hear what you're getting at, but I see it as TGUS > no TG at all. And also the banter between the US guys is pretty good as well. Plenty of lulz every now and then.

Also as a side note, Rutledge Wood seems to be a pretty cool guy. I remember he registered on another forum I frequented (TCL) when TGUS started picking up and answered questions and talked cars with the members over there.

fuck every time this thread gets bumped i get excited thinking something new came out. I don't give a fuck if JC got a speeding ticket lol

Lomac 10-19-2014 03:54 PM

Yeah, the last season or two of TGUS is much better. I think the episode long challenges suits them more than the format they tried to emulate originally. Also, the chemistry between the three hosts have definitely grown. I do agree that it's annoying that Foust seems to be the only one that drives the reward vehicle, though. I know he's the only one with professional experience racing vehicles but I'd love to see one of the other two try their hand at it.

Yeah, there was a few guys around the cars under the covers. I guess people aren't technically supposed to be down in that area, but I was down there for work having a look at the Novac FP system.

Lomac 10-27-2014 09:27 PM

Production team guys? You should have chatted them up!
